This is a great grip for the first time dowel grip user. It is narrower and smaller than the standard and narrow width grip. It is great for gymnasts with smaller and narrower hands. It comes with a buckle strap to hold the grip on the wrist. The strap is smaller and narrower than the standard width grips. The leather breaks in easier and helps the smaller gymnast keep more of their hand on the bar and feel their swing. Available in sizes XXS L.
The hole tore when her coach tried to help stretch them. Coach never had that happen before, and she was using the same technique with the pencil described in the instructions. They were my kiddo's first ever pair and she worked hard to get them, so it was really disappointing. I can't speak to actual performance since she never got the chance to use them.
